PATA: Employee intranet with ERP integration

The idea

PATA manages the full forest lifecycle, from seedlings to timber harvesting and sales, across Latvia. Before the intranet, with field teams spread across the country, internal communication relied on emails, phone calls, and manual spreadsheets. Employees lacked a central place to check company news, access policy documents, or review their salary details. HR spent hours each month fielding individual payroll questions.

PATA’s goal: a single internal platform where every employee can find what they need without calling the office.

What we built

We developed a company intranet tailored to PATA’s specific workflows:

• AXAPTA accounting integration Employees see their salary breakdown, synced nightly from the company's ERP system, with no manual exports.
• Company news and announcements A central feed replaces the email chain and holds updates, policy changes, and operational notices.
• Document library Safety procedures, HR policies, and operational guides are all searchable and always up to date.
• Role-based access Field workers, managers, and HR each see what's relevant to them.

The integration with AXAPTA was the most complex part. We built a secure API bridge that syncs salary data nightly, handling edge cases like mid-month adjustments and tax recalculations.

The result

HR payroll inquiries dropped, with employees now self-serving through the portal. Company-wide announcements go out the same day, instead of after a week of forwarded emails. New employees onboard faster with all policies and procedures in one place. The system has been running reliably with minimal maintenance since launch.
